In what two ways did northerners respond to the emancipation proclamation?
they did not approve of slaves being set free.
they did not think the document went far enough.
they believed the war was about secession.
they thought it should have not been written.

The correct answer among all the other choices is "They did not approve of slaves being set free." This is how Northerners respond to the Emancipation Proclamation. Thank you for posting your question. I hope that this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.

The answer would be hard press.
